Hi Chris, I am not related but am working on this site in memory of a Marine listed as missing who was killed attempting to save a relative of mine. I would welcome any information your family is willing to share.

Chris, I have written the book, The Men of the USS Arizona. I am also looking for more information and possibly a photo that I can add to his info in the book. You will be credited with your contribution. Please email me at: dashounds2@comcast.net and reference William Daniel Harmon in your correspondence.
Thank you,

Hello Julie,
Any and all information you’d like to share is most welcome! Ideally, I would like to be able to provide biographical sketches for as many of our missing WW2 Marines as I can – anything from a birthdate to a photograph to a nickname or an anecdote is welcome. Family histories that are not readily available through military records are best; I think it helps put a face to these men that is easy to miss when you see their names on a memorial or in a book.

So I suppose the question is: what would you like to share about your relative?

Julie,
I too am looking for more information, family stories and a photo of William Daniel Harmon for my book, The Men of the USS Arizona. I will be publishing in time for the 75th Anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. Any help you may give me would be appreciated. You will be credited with your contribution. Please email me back at: dashounds2@comcast.net
Thank you,
